"Inspiring & motivating young children to enjoy the world of ballet & dance through imagination & play"

Tag Archives: ballet themed party

This week we thought it would be fun to help you out with some more ballet themed party ideas. Have you ever thought of doing a ballet themed pass the parcel? Well we’re here to help! Below are some handy forfeits you are free to use to wrap up into your parcel. Whatever kind of party you’re organising (birthday, Christmas etc), any kids who love the world of ballet will have great fun with these forfeits.

So, are you ready? Here are your forfeits, cut and paste as you like (the last 5 are Twinklesteps themed ones – find out more about her here):

Tell this ballet joke: “What is a ballet dancer’s number one priority? To always get right to the pointe!”

Do a princess walk around the circle.

Do Good toes, Naughty toes.

Tell this ballet joke: What is a pigs favourite ballet? Swine Lake!

Have a go at a pirouette.

Can you do Second Position (ask someone else to help if you don’t know it).

Tell this ballet joke: “Why did the ballet dancer cross the road? Because she had to practice on the other side!”

We love birthdays here at Twinklesteps and know that ballet themed parties are a great way to celebrate a love of ballet and dance with all of our budding ballerinas out there. So this week we’re delighted to share with you some ideas for a Twinklesteps themed birthday party. Yey!

First off we wanted to put together some fab making and moving activities your young party goers will love (Pssst…don’t forget to scroll further down for party bag ideas from our shop).

Twinklesteps Party Activities:

1) Decorate your own ballet shoes (read more and download the template for free here).

2) Make a Twinklesteps dancing puppet (read more and download the template for free here).

3) Get everyone up and moving with these magical flying wrist bands just like Jett’s (get this craft activity here).

4) Make an imagination dance mat to get your young party goers exploring as a team (find out how here).

Twinklesteps Party Bag ideas:

Now you’ve got your activities sorted, we have all sorts of party bag ideas for you. From little purses with hair bobbles to take to ballet class, to a ballerina necklace and fairy wand. View these goodies and other fun party bag ideas over in our shop.

For a really special present for the party bag our ballet adventure story book ‘Twinklesteps and the Disappearing Birdsong’ would make a great present. You could also read the story out at the end of the party as a lovely finishing touch before home time. Click here to view it in our shop.

We hope your child has an amazing party full of fun and excitement. Let us know how it goes and what other ideas you come up with by commenting below or over on our Facebook page.

Happy Birthday to all our ballet and dance lovers out there. Love from the Twinklesteps team 🙂
